about

This song was written in 2018. We had just moved into a new apartment, in a nice neighborhood, in the Winter. And then the sun came out. "Move" is about growth.

Rough rough mix. Hear the pupper in the background. #issaeasteregg Remix coming soon!

lyrics

Since the beginning
Of fime, as far as the eye can see
We use stories to tell our legacy
That’s why
Between time ticks,
across land and seas
the problem?
his story
it wasn’t checkin for me
And silene and ommission-ing,
is far worse then a voice
and a positioning
That’s a gift man
And everywhere we go
man we're different
Everywhere you go shit is different
New rules same game
Ain’t shit done changed
They wrote the handbook without you
Ain’t got a seat
At the table for a player
About you
So what you bout to do?
This ain’t your place
No house rules
And everywhere you go
man it’s different
Everywhere you go
shit is different.

What you doin standin still
You’re supposed to move

What you doin standin still
You’re supposed to move

Wake up in the morning
Grab my phone from the night stand
Tryna make an overnight hundred grand
But the market is red
if ida spent a little sooner
Whispers in the valley
Had no green back then to do it
I wanna buy the block
Grow a little crypto
Staring at the screen won’t make
the time a faster tick
They say to save for rainy days
I had a season full of Aprils
And the well went dry
Holding hard won’t make the rocket
hit the moon tho
But damn if I don’t try
Something better happen soon
I got dreams to leave this corner
and I just parked my car
It was perfect in the winter
when the sun was far away
Daylight savings time
Means business hours are longer
Where the dope boys like to play
I wish they had a better way
But not outside my door
I want it different
When it happens close to home
That shit is different
There’s blood in these streets

What you doin standin still
You’re supposed to move
